glow plug light
 
Hi Guys, I have a 91 350sdl and the glow plug light doesn't come on untill the car runs for about two minutes, then stays on for about 45 seconds then goes out. When I start the car I wait about 30 seconds and she fires right up , so plugs must be working. However the remote starter will not start it, It tries to start before the glow plugs have a chance to warm up. Does run rough for about 30 seconds. Appreciate any suggestions where to start checking. Thanks

Possible bad relay and/or bad glow plugs.

I suggest you seek answers in this thread.

Thanks Whunter. I've order new glow plugs. Let you know next week if that was the problem.

Just wanted to say thanks to Shertex and Whunter. I finally got the glow plugs installed and that took care of the glow light. Thanks again.
